Beautiful Day in April

Beautiful Day in April

I had a great time showing Cindy, Lynn, Theresa, Jennifer,Cameron, and Ashlin around the Islands of Captiva, North Captiva, and Cayo Costa. We started the trip by observing dolphins in the wild.  Soon after we saw manatees. We had the chance to look at these marine mammals for quite a while. It was a first for all on board. After a short boat ride from Captiva we found an isolated stretch of beach where the shelling was good. Cameron and Ashlin found what they were searching for “Sand dollars”. The ladies had a great time, and time flew by quickly.

I have been a Shelling Guide to Cayo Costa State Park since 1995. Many people know me as the Shelling Guide and Captain with Captiva Cruises over the past 20 years. In 2016 I began solely offering private small boat charters to the islands of Pine Island Sound including Cayo Costa State Park, Cabbage Key, Useppa Island, Pine Island and North Captiva. I am a certified Florida Master Naturalist, licensed USCG Captain, avocational photographer, seashell enthusiast and passionate about the history, people and culture of Southwest Florida, especially Cayo Costa. I volunteer as a member of Friends of Cayo Costa State Park and have great respect for the heritage of Cayo Costa. My goal is to provide guests with an overall experience and appreciation for the waters, islands, shells, plants, marine life, wildlife, history and people of this unique area of Southwest Florida.
